Gmail introduces Mail Fetcher

Article No :124 | February 10, 2007 | by Constantinos Demetriadis

Gmail, after going public, has silently introduced a new feature that definitely adds great value to the world’s already most popular web based mail service. Gmail’s Mail Fetcher now allows you to receive mail from up to 5 non-Gmail accounts, be that Yahoo! Mail or any other POP enabled account. The best, just got better.

Lasse: Up until now, in order to retrieve email from other non-Gmail accounts, you’d first have to forward the email to your Gmail account. Then you probably would want to setup some sort of filter in order to label the emails based on the account from where they arrived.
With the Mail Fetcher all you do is tell Gmail to fetch your email from any account that supports POP.

Gmail might only have 51m users but guess what if you use Yahoo or Hotmail you are supporting PORN...That’s right folks Yahoo is the worse for PORN...So stop using Yahoo and get a better email system such as Gmail.
